After what squidhead pointed out to me, I’ve planned for there to be a road car version of the Piranha too
I’d do what you did last year. Have a whole season done in one version and just release it over coming weeks.
A badge engineered Zavir 97-99 for the US market as part of an agreement with Zavir Automobili. An early pioneer in the budget premium market, while the more upmarket Zavir was slotted as the European style alternative to the top American luxury coupes and sedans of the time

I’m remaking the 2012 Dimension Paradox 6. I feel like my new styles would significantly improve the car and suit the car’s evolution much better.
The sixth generation Paradox debuts in 2012, and this time, it’s actually a half decent sports car in every regard. Interior has been significantly updated to match the level of it’s competitors, and the suspension was sport driving ready even in stock form. It soon found itself in the hands of our most loyal Paradox buyers, middle aged country club goers with no intention of tracking the car or going beyond 30 mph. Remember, it’s a nice car gramps, but it ain’t making you younger.

The Geezer Cruiser gets a real sporty package with help from KHT. With their supreme German knowledge and expertise, they have improved the car in all performance aspects while still keeping good old fashioned American fun.
(Note: @squidhead wasn’t involved in making this car, but he was with the original Paradox 6 KHT.)

If I had $60k I’d have two options that I really like.
BMW 1M
Paradox XY
think you know what i’d do
THAT IS ONE SEXY CAR
with some great specs to back it up
gimme
Oh well… I screwed that so badly… The lore will be “SLIGHTLY” inconsistent But it’s my fault, I shouldn’t have delayed it for so long (for those wondering, this car was ready at least a few weeks ago). So now it seems I must publish the Zavir variant.
About the Paradox - if there was such thing as a subscription for automatically giving likes, you would get it from me for your current design style
Absolute stunner of a car. I’m amazed you can sell this for so little, I must be doing something wrong!
Also, having had a trawl through your older posts and the previous Paradox’s, this is definiteley the best looking one yet.
One question, which mod did you use for those winglets on the front corners of the XY trim?
Naw, I just abandoned a lot of stuff to make em cheap. Quality slider spam makes things expensive quickly
I think they’re part of VMO’s old mod pack
The revamped Paradox range is the very definition of awesome - plenty of power, pace and presence at a reasonable price!
Cheers for that!
Just substitute Dodge Viper for Dimension Paradox.
I wish it was that fast lol
But when Unreal hits in, the Paradox will make a switch to a V10 since it’s first generation to Viperize the line up.
Piranha is 100% getting a V10
Again, another reboot of one of my early cars. The Gen 3 Rift sedan.
Have you ever wondered what it’s like to live with a soul crushingly boring rental car as your daily commuter? Wonder no more, because Dimension has a solution! How you live with the fact that you actually chose to buy this sad pathethic attempt at motoring is something for you to figure out though. Shares the same platform and engine with the Doppler wagon.

The successor to the much beloved Gen II SSP Turbo 4WD, the Gen III variant takes more steps in making the car more liveable everyday and toning down the race car look. Buying this car also entitles you to laughing at base model owner’s pathetic attempts to make it look like your superior version. When it’s not in the shop having blown it’s headgaskets that is.

Awesome how a few racing inspired enhancements change from walter-white-type-of-car to full heisnberg
Also nice stats, considering that car body has the aerodynamics of a brick.
Ah no wonder the thing and it’s previous gen was so slow.
Was going to retune the car since it could barely outrun it’s minivan counterpart but can’t get the thing to go fast at all…
